A/N: Oh my gosh guys it's been two weeks since I updated, so I'm sorry. So much for one a week, but my excuse is I've been really busy with moving and school and stuff. Not to mention my anxiety's making a little comeback. BUT FROM NOW ON I WILL UPDATE ONCE A WEEK! All right, This chapter is kind of short and doesn't really accomplish anything but does raise a few questions. I'm working on the next chapter, but I decided to cut it off and update a little sooner, so consider this part one of chapter three. Thanks for reading, and it means a LOT if you would take time to write a review! I am a little over enthusiastic about this, and I FREAK out when I get one. Thanks again!

"Oi! Maka! Get up already!"

Soul Eater shook his partner awake, stripping of the bedspread suddenly. Exposed to the cold air, Maka curled into a heat conserving ball. She slowly opened her green eyes and looked at Soul.

"Ugh. Soul... what time is it?"

"Quarter till seven. We have fifteen minutes, so hurry up. I was even cool enough to fry you some eggs."

Maka was already scrambling out of bed, running to the closet and throwing a few clothes on the bed. "Crap! Class starts at seven o'clock Soul! Why didn't you wake me earlier? Sid'll kill us if we're late again this week."

"You were out like a light. If I tried to wake you up you'd probably just start talking in your sleep again."

Maka paused in her hurried flossing. "Again?"

"Oh yeah." Soul adopted a squeaky voice. "Ooh Asura! I loooooove you! I think your scarves made of your old skin are really cute!"

Maka rolled her eyes. "Oh my God, Soul. Get out, I'm going to change." She shoved him out the door and slammed it. "Idiot." She muttered. She heard Soul laughing softly from the hall.

When she came out a few seconds later, tying her pigtails up with her LordDeath hair ties (available at Death Mart) Soul handed her a plate of eggs without a word.

"So Soul," Maka asked, "do I really talk in my sleep?"

"Yeah." Soul said.

"What do I say?" Maka asked, walking in front of him and looking him in the eye.

"Eat your eggs, Maka."

Maka pouted. "Fine." She scooped up the last bit of egg, and Soul gestured towards his motorbike outside.

"Come on Maka, ten minutes till. Let's go."

Even on the way to school Maka thought about how Soul avoided her question. He's so weird. Why did he bring it up if he didn't want to talk about it? Do I really talk in my sleep, or is he just kidding around?

Of course Soul wasn't going to tell her that she screamed and cried in her sleep at night. Sometimes she yelled, or called out for him or Kid. It was really disturbing, but Soul never knew what to do, and he knew she'd be embarrassed to tell her. That wouldn't be cool at all.

The bell rang right as Soul and Maka entered the classroom. Sid narrowed his eyes at them, but didn't comment as they made their way to their seats.

Thank shinigami it's Friday. Soul thought as his mind wandered during class. As usual Maka sat alert and paid attention and scribbled down every detail on the board in her red notebook with 'History'printed on it in neat handwriting. He watched her green eyes raise up to the board, and quickly down to her paper again to take a note. His eyes drifted briefly towards the board. Something about the weather.

"Ugh. So boring." Soul muttered as he leaned back to stretch.

"What's that Evans? Would you like to make a comment of the strategical advantages of rainy weather?"

"Uh..." So not cool. Soul saw Maka glance at him and roll her eyes. Idiot was what she would say, but she was a good girl and never spoke out of turn. Damn egg head.

"Come on Evans. I always encourage students to participate in class. That's the kind of man I was."

Soul was saved from having to come up with a response when the bell rang. He gratefully left; Stein was weird, but at least he didn't force Soul to care.

Damn isn't it three o'clock already? Soul found himself counting down the minutes and seconds till the bell. After being dragged through some sort of fish dissection lab (Friday 'reward' for being so attentive that week) Stein was finally erasing the instructions from the chalkboard and concluding the class.

"This weekends homework will be analyzing the difference between the guppy's innards and those of a mammal. That's it. As usual anyone who doesn't complete their assignment automatically volunteers for next weeks dissection lab. Evan's, I'd like to see you after class."

"Why?" Soul asked as a few people turned to look at him.

"I wont bite." Stein protested quietly, pushing his glasses up his nose so that his glasses glinted dangerously.

"I'm not worried about you biting." Muttered Soul as the bell rang for school to end. Despite his misgivings, Soul walked to Steins spinny office chair all the same. Maka started to follow him, but Stein said; "Maka, you can go wait outside." She looked confused, and hesitated. But being the model student she was she turned and walked out anyway.

Stein sat down in his chair. "Soul Eater I'd like ask you about how you and Maka are recovering."

Soul sighed. "I'm fine, I still get head and joint aches sometimes but it's not bad. Maka looks like she's fine but she still doesn't have her appetite back, and I wish her bruises would go away. She's skinny as a rail and it's freaking me out."

"What about your resonance?"

"Seems to be fine. We haven't tried resonating souls yet, but we're in sync at least."

"What about Maka's weapon abilities?"

Soul's eyes darkened. "Nothing. I know she's curious about it, but I have a bad feeling."

"Good. I did a little research, it could be dangerous for her to have active weapon blood during your resonance. First of all you would be out of balance; your souls would automatically battle for dominance. And second, all that one sided energy might awaken the black blood. Not to mention your bond probably wont be as strong since it's been a while and you two seem like your a little out of sorts."

"I don't know about that. You'd have to ask Maka."

"Ok, I'll do that. You can go now Soul."

Soul nodded and turned to go. When he saw Maka she was doing sit ups. Huh. Thats weird. He thought. "Hey, tiny tits. Lets go."

Maka jumped and scrambled to her feet. "Ok! It's your turn to cook!" She laughed. "Oh, and we have another mission with BlackStar and Tsubaki, and Kid and the Thompson's are finally joining too!"

"Is that a good idea? When is it?" Soul got on his motorcycle and offered the spare helmet to Maka.

Maka accepted the spare helmet and put it on. "Next Tuesday. Stein mentioned it in class, but I figured you weren't listening. Besides, I talked to Liz today and she said Kid and Patti were itching for something to do."

"Ok..." Soul was a little reluctant, but hey; she was the meister. "If I'm cooking I guess we should go home. It's Friday, so Blair should be out late."

"Good." Maka muttered. And Soul smiled to himself.

"Should we see someone over the weekend? Maybe go to BlackStar and Tsubaki's place?" Soul started the engine and took off down the street.

"I want to train this weekend Soul. Besides, BlackStar's apartment is in shambles after Nigus duct taped him to the couch." Maka shouted over the wind.

"Alright. But no overdoing it on training." Soul said.

"I can't hear you!" Maka yelled, pretending to be deafened by the wind.

"Why bother." muttered Soul Eater.
